Is Mc Gregor on the wind up? Buying a southern Californian boxing license €50 would buy one. I don't think he would win an Irish amateur title at any weight from 54-75 kg. I fear this is a wind up as he's bound to know he's not at the level of any middle ranked welterweight out there.

I'd say he's quite happy with adding fuel to the fire about a possible fight with Mayweather. Being continually associated with a guy who the greatest of his generation doesn't do brand McGregor any harm whatever. McGregor plays the game very well!

He's 100% on the wind up and Mayweather is complicit in it. McGregor would be annihilated in a boxing match by any competitive contestant in the Irish nationals.

David Haye Gets Owned By Tony Bellew On TV Show Very Funny! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yro9MRQ60s

I thought Bellew just looked and sounded like a prize co*k

Very sad news that Alejandro Gonzalez jr, the young guy who put Carl Frampton down twice in the first round and gave him the scare of his life last year, was found dead today. Looks like he was murdered, only 23.

Terrible news

Absolutely shocking news.

On another note there feels like it's wrong to be watching live boxing at half 8 in the morning.

Katie won easily, the biggest problem is gonna be get enough quality fighters for her?

Chisora and Whyte mightn't be much good but at least they evenly matched and having a go at each other.

Jaysis lads that was great stuff!!

Wasn't expecting that at all a draw and a rematch would be great!

[Far East]

Wasn't it just.  After all the prefight ballocks, they put on a hell of a show.
They've earned a headlining rematch and the extra $ they'll surely make

Had Chisora by 1 but it could easily have been 3 points either way.

Best heavyweight bout in years.

That was some brawl. I was a bit surprised Whyte got it, i was thinking draw or Chisora if there was a winner but i haven't a notion
